Tecmo have tried to say that the rest of the employees haven't tried to sue them I think, but god knows what the real truth is. Will be interesting to see how this all turns out, but I wonder what company will sign up Itagaki? I do like a lot of his stuff, but in some ways I think he is a complete dick (the "Tekken is a piece of shit" comment he made pissed me off a bit for one).

If Tecmo continue making Ninja Gaiden and DOA games, which I am sure they will, it will also be interesting to see how they turn out.

I hate to say it, but at least one of my friends would agree with that comment. Regardless, I agree, there is no need to be so dismissive of the competition. I do really like Ninja Gaiden (despite being unable to beat an overboard mission in NG Black), but Dead or Alive... ehhhhh. Never really liked that series.

It does bite that he took pretty much the entire company with him, though. I think Tecmo's produced some underrately fine games over the years, and this little dispute over cash would put the kibosh on what I really want: A new Rygar!

What's so ironic, is how obviously tacky DOA is. I haven't found anyone that has been about to prove to me the substantial quality of that series. Even some dude i knew who practiced the game every day couldn't withstand my tenacious spamming of the "strong attack" button which has ultra priority and range with almost every character.

I do like DOA and I find it fun, but I don't take it massively seriously, or at least I haven't since the first one... but even that was main;y notable for the ridiculous boob physics. I think Itagaki was referring to Tekken 4 at the time, and to be fair he was partially right as T4 was far from the best, but it did show a lack of respect imho.
